I did a search and could not find to much related to this so I am asking here.
IF one of my BO's goes broody, I plan on letting her hatch the eggs out. There is NO WAY she can be isolated during this time. Here are my questions:
I think the eggs will be safe while she is sitting on them right? As safe as you can hope for in this situation?
What are some of the other things that go wrong that I may not have read about?
Will the other chickens act alright with the babies when they are born, do you think?
Just planning for it now. Thank you for the answers.
